After Xiao Sun stood up, he made eye contact with another civil servant.
They walked out together.
I overheard another civil servant whispering:
"It seems there's no problem. If there really were, Commander Wu would have found out long ago. Comrade Wen Qiao is now, to be precise, Commander Wu's daughter. It's not good to ask any more questions..."
As they were walking out, they suddenly heard a strong, resonant voice coming from outside the door.
"Who's going to investigate my son-in-law and daughter?"
When Lü Yazhi saw Old Wu, her eyes showed a hint of surprise. She had asked the nanny to secretly take the child out for a walk and call Old Wu while she was at it.
I didn't have high hopes; I just thought I'd give it a try by making a phone call.
Unexpectedly, Old Wu actually came.
“Brother Wu, you’ve finally arrived. There are so many people here, and they’ve asked me a lot of questions. How would I know who my first husband’s father, my unfortunate father-in-law, was? When I married Xiao Qiao’s father, he was a bachelor. I never heard him talk about his family or anything like that until he died.”
"I was so scared that I called you. I hope I'm not interrupting your work?"
Looking at the delicate Lü Yazhi, Wu Yongliang felt an overwhelming urge to protect her.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here now. Come on, let's go in and see who came to the Shen family to investigate."
Wu Yongliang walked forward, with Lü Yazhi following behind.
The nanny who had taken the baby girl out also returned, and she breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Commander Wu.
As Wu Yongliang walked to the Shen family's door, Deputy Secretary Chen, who was still talking to Shen Jichuan in the study, heard the knocking on the study door.
His men are shouting outside:
"Deputy Secretary Chen, Commander Wu has arrived..."
Deputy Secretary Chen immediately stood up and looked at Shen Jichuan.
With a smile plastered on his face, he said, "I never expected that you would have some connection with Commander Wu."
Shen Jichuan said calmly, "Commander Wu's wedding to my mother-in-law is this week."
Upon hearing this, Deputy Secretary Chen's face immediately turned ugly. He didn't know what to say and turned to leave.
The young civil servant, Sun, immediately approached Deputy Secretary Chen.
He whispered, "Commander Wu is outside, and he doesn't look too well."
Deputy Secretary Chen hadn't expected that it would be Commander Wu who came; he had assumed that Shen Jichuan would seek help from Commander Hu.
But Commander Hu didn't have the influence to ask Secretary Wang to give him face.
But Commander Wu is different...
Commander Wu knew Secretary Wang's former boss, and had done Secretary Wang a favor, albeit a small one, but the favor was still there.
Deputy Secretary Chen wondered how he had gotten involved with Commander Wu.
The more Chen, the more annoyed he became, he glanced at Zhao Minghan, who was standing to the side smoking as if nothing had happened.
"Deputy Chief of Staff Zhao, why didn't you mention beforehand the relationship between Commander Shen and Commander Wu?"
Zhao Minghan immediately said, "I originally wanted to tell you, but I didn't take a single car. However, I did tell the two civil servants in front of you..."
Zhao Minghan did say it, but it was at the Shen family's house when she asked Wen Qiao a question.
When the two civil servants found out, they immediately went to tell Deputy Secretary Chen, but it was too late.
Deputy Secretary Chen went to the door to greet Commander Wu when he arrived at the Shen family's living room.
"Old Commander, what brings you here? I had no idea you had this connection with Commander Shen. It's like we've become family."
Commander Wu glanced at Deputy Secretary Chen.
Did Xiao Wang send you?
